UWP Hamburger Menu not opening

Question

I'm creating an UWP app with a hamburger menu the hamburger menu; it's a stackpanel that has some buttons and icons; anyway the main page load items from the internet and it scrolls down for viewing more items, and the problem is that when I start the app on Windows 10 mobile, the menu never opens. Every time I swipe horizontally, the menu never shows. I've tried to swipe by mouse on PC and the menu shows, but on phones the swipe is converted to scroll, so nothing happens :/ Any ideas?

Here's my main page code:

        <StackPanel x:Name="stckpnlMenuTop" Padding="0,40,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Background="{ThemeResource ComboBoxPopupBorderThemeBrush}" RenderTransformOrigin="0,0" Width="300">

I think that's my problem with the scroll bar on the main page but you should know that there's no scrollviewer on it the stackpanel get scroll in auto and there's no code for it so i can't disable the horizontal scroll

If you want to make a hamburger menu in UWP, you could simply do it with the SplitView control. I'm not sure that if you know this control, I just mentioned it as Shubham Sahu said. If you're interested in using SplitView control to make a hamburger, you could read this blog Windows 10 SplitView – Build Your First Hamburger Menu for details.

If you still want to do it by yourself like your above xaml code, but you could not solve your current issue. Please provide an entire reproducible code sample. Because you just post your xaml code, but you have registered so many event handlers. You have not post any C# code, so, I didn't know what you have done in code-behind.
